Suspension Recommendation

[locoloc]

Hi,

All im really after is to lower my car a bit (r32gtr). Currently it has standard shock/springs.

I am really happy with the ride comfort and realise that any modification will compromise this.

I have found a set of Tein Ha's used for 400bucks but am very hesitant on putting in coilovers after reading all the threads on the Teins.

Im not too phased by a stiffer ride but will they be so stiff that I will wish id never installed them.

So my question is, will i be better of installing the HA's or should i just get lowered springs and use the standard shocks.

$400 Tein Ha's will be rooted imo

Have a look at SK's Suspension group buys

Any coilovers for $400 would be a good idea to stay away from. We can sell you brand new ISC N1 coilovers for $1499

ud be better off just buying some bilsteins and keeping the standard springs, they will allow u to adjust height, not compromise ride comfort too much and improve handling.

yeah for $400 unless you get them tested, theyre probably shagged. I payed more for mine and one of the rear is rooted. lessoned learnt. never buying used jap shocks again..ha. then again there could be nothing wrong with them.

Yeah, my mate had a similar experience.

Bought used coilovers, rear shocks were dead. We'd gone on a trip to go watch Targa, and around corners with bumps the car was an absolute mess. He had to ship his stock suspension back down and get it installed.

i will never go back to coilovers, they are too stiff for everyday drive. i rkn get some nice damper and springs will do cept for the lower-ness.
